After coming back from the Glasgow transport museum last year I was inspired by seeing the wacky Sinclair C5 and other more successful inventions such as the Spectrum home computer from Clive Sinclair. There were so many different old vehicles that were preserved so well it was very inspiring to see the development from then to now.

For fun I started doodling this scientist inventor guy. He’s supposed to be ginger, have tartan trousers and a lab coat full of stuff. I know, I should colour my drawings. I’m not sure of his name yet, but he could possibly be a Fraser 🙂

I started watching ‘Rick and Morty’ this year, so I’m happy that this character doesn’t resemble Rick apart from the lab coat, but I understand if people think I’m inspired by that. I think this guy is trying to find wacky solutions to everyday problems rather than screw with the whole universe. Perhaps Rick is just a bit cooler than a nerdy Scottish scientist, so he’s on the shelf until he can get more funding.

Invention 1 – The family helper robot.

Invention 2 – The ultra compact electric family car.

Invention 3 – The compact family subterranean mole drill vehicle. For those who wish to get away, far, far, underground.
